Fermi'S Paradox       
                          
                                          
 On  Earth (The  Planet Where  I Live)  A 
 Lot  Of Us  Have  Antennas On Our Houses 
 Or  Balconies,  We  Have   Built   Large 
 Antennas  For  Larger Bandwith, We  Have 
      Build Specialized Antennaes For     
    Specific Wavelengths (And Sent Them   
 Into  Orbit), We'Ve Built Large As  Fuck 
              Antenna Arrays              
 We'Ve Virtually Built An Antenna With  A 
         Dish As Large As Earth.          
                                          
 We'Ve Learned About Our Position In  The 
      Solar System, Our Solar Systems     
 Placement   In  The   Galaxy,  And   Our 
 Galaxys Placement In  The Local Cluster, 
 And  Our Local  Clusters  Place In The 
          Grand Scheme Of Things          
                                          
 And  We'Re  Moving  Around  The  Sun  At 
 Velocity And The Suns Moving  Around The 
 Center  Of The  Galaxy  At  Velocity And 
 The Galaxy  Is  Moving Toward  Andromeda 
    And We'Re Both Moving Anticlockwise   
 Around The Galaxy. And We  As A  Species 
 Have Learned To Take All That In Account 
                                          
 And Despite All  This,  Despite  All Our 
   (Cliche) Beaming Of Fucking Stellar    
 Radio  Programmes  Out In  Fucking Space 
 At The  Speed  Of Light  (Light  Is  Our 
 Medium! Goodspeed You, Black Emperor!),  
      Despite Ghosts Helping And The      
     Collective Consciousness Lowpass     
   Filtering, Despite Our Very Obvious    
 Beaming  Of  All  Our  Secrets  In Every 
          Direction Known To Us,          
                                          
 No       One       Has       Answered

              So Why Is That?             
                                          
 Most Opponents  To  Intelligent  Life In 
 The Universe Say It'S  Because  You Need 
 A  Class  One-Or-The-Other Star  And The 
 Planet  Needs  To  Be  At  A  See-And-So 
 Distance  Away From The Star (Like There 
           Has To Be A Planet!)           
                                          
 But   Really  Isn'T  That  Keeping   The 
      Definition Of Life Really Lax?      
                                          
 I Think Everyone Agrees That We Have  No 
 Idea  What We'Re Doing (And  It Probably 
                  Shows)
